Concept Validation

To create a use case, business and user research has been performed by looking at available internal real-estate and office utilization data, interviews with stakeholders and observational walk-througs on how building efficiency is managed today. The artifacts below represent insights on the concept validation.

Drivers & Trends

We first identified drivers and trends in order to set a focus for the to-be solution. This allowed us to validate the concept within a business context.

Business Challenges

We looked at overall business challenges to understand our unfair advantage in the competitive landscape and defined business outcomes for product sale.

Value Proposition

We validated the value proposition with internal and external stakeholders to ensure product desirability and market pull.

Technical Feasibility

With an initial value proposition, we validated the technical feasibility of the product and continued to conceptualize and build a prototype.

Solution Benefits

After validating the technical feasibility we defined solution benefits to make business outcomes more tangible for the client and instigate a purchase decision.

Success Metrics

To ensure product success and growth, we determined metrics to proof value and delivery of real outcomes to clients.
